144 The Prodigal Son

PS: The reward and monthly ticket moved the artillery, I didn't expect the relatives to support the artillery so much, I didn't say it, 3977 words, write a little more words to make it worth it for everyone, thank you.

"Shopkeeper Liu, you still owe silver for the house by the Slender West Lake, and now that the amount here is so large, can you handle it?" Zhao Sima suddenly asked with some suspicion.

When explaining the purchase of a big house, Liu Yuan said in court that he still borrowed a lot of silver to buy the big house, and now the price is negotiated, but when can the silver be repaid, that is the most important thing, it can't be a small businessman, get such a big benefit, and still owe the money of the official family, there is no such rule.

"Xiaoyuan, you have no problem, the official's silver, that can't be delayed." Cui Tingshi said lightly on the side.

Liu Yuan understood what he meant, the extra three thousand taels could be slowed down, but the three thousand taels used for storage could not be delayed, and they should be handed over as soon as possible.

No matter which dynasty, in addition to having connections, one's own strength is also very important, Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

If it weren't for Liu Yuan's big fortune in Jinshui River, the six thousand taels would really not be able to be taken out today, fortunately, alchemy in the mud suddenly produced more than 10,000 taels of silver out of thin air, even if the accounts were settled at one time, it would not be a problem for Liu Yuan.

But

Liu Yuan said with a grateful face: "Don't worry, my lord, it just so happened that I received a few deposits for specially customized jewelry, and there are more than 1,000 taels at home, make up for it, the 3,000 taels can still be taken, as for the filial piety to several adults, the account will be absolutely cleared within three days." I think that with the reputation of the Jinyu family and the property I just bought, I can raise a little turnover with my friends, and this face is still there. ”

There is an old saying: wealth cannot be exposed, Liu Yuan has just been the shopkeeper for a few months, and he is buying slaves and buying houses, spending money like flowing water, which has long caused many people to speculate, especially the luxury mansion worth 8,000 taels in one fell swoop, which makes many people jealous and envious. If you take out the silver in a hurry, maybe you will let someone with a heart target it.

If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, although it is ugly, it is better than making people jealous.

If you say that you have only been in charge for a few months. He bought slaves and bought a large mansion, which cost more than 10,000 taels. Now take out a few thousand taels in one go. Others were surprised, but what scared Liu Yuan the most was that this Cui Tingshi was very interested in his every move, and above the court, his subordinates knew everything about his recent expenses, and he was also shocked. I don't know what Cui Tingshi is going to do, at least, pay attention to yourself not a day or two.

Zhao Sima smiled and said, "That's good, I didn't expect that Shopkeeper Liu's family background is still quite rich." ”

"Where. Where, that, I am not afraid of the two of them laughing, the deposit was misappropriated first, as for the remaining more than 1,000 taels, it is Sanniang's own money, and now I am short of money, so I will borrow it temporarily, and when the funds are returned, I have to make up for her. Liu Yuan said with a smile.

"Tut-tut, Brother Liu, that's amazing." Zhao Zhutou squeezed his eyebrows and said with his eyes: "Sanniang's fame, Su Huai no one knows, no one knows, although it is just a prostitute, but Sanniang does not sell her body, she is still innocent, the most rare thing is that it does not cost a copper plate, and the beauty still has a large amount of selfish selfishness, envy." ”

Not only did he not need money to find a famous prostitute, but he also took refuge with more than 1,000 taels of selfishness, and when he took refuge, Liu Yuan was just a small businessman, I have to say that the peach blossoms are prosperous, and even our Lord Shi has envy in his heart.

"Liu Yuan, a young man, the most important thing is to be motivated, no matter how good a beauty is, it is just a pink skeleton, sometimes, you have to take a long-term view." Cui Tingshi was like an elder, and said with a pun.

"Lord Thorn Shi is right, the little ones remember the teachings of adults." Liu Yuan hurriedly bowed his head in response.

Cui Tingshi happily patted Liu Yuan's shoulder, and the confidants present were jealous of that kind of affection.

Liu Yuan looked at the sky outside, and said a little embarrassed: "My lord, I didn't expect that there would be three watches in a blink of an eye, presumably the family was in a hurry, but a curfew was being implemented outside, what should I do?" ”

"What's this, I'll just send you back, anyway, it's all my people who patrol it." Zhao Zhutou patted his chest and said.

"This method works." Cui Tingshi nodded and said: "Zhao Zhutou, Liu Yuan brought so much jewelry back, and he also had to find someone to escort him, so he would have to take a trip to you, and escort the treasury silver back by the way, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Everyone present understood what Cui Tingshi meant, since the inventory was completed, Liu Yuan also said that he could pay three thousand taels immediately, and the other three thousand taels would be raised within three days, so let him move back overnight, and there was a curfew outside, and no one found out, and Zhao Zhutou could also take back the silver by the way and put it into the warehouse.

"Yes, the villain takes the order." Everyone here only stabbed Lord Shi's head and looked forward, since he had decided, how could Zhao Zhutou refute it, and bowed down overnight to receive the order.

After solving this matter, Cui Tingshi was also tired, yawned, and said to everyone lazily: "You can arrange it, this official will go to the countryside tomorrow to inspect, and go to rest first." ”

Everyone hurriedly sent Cui Tingshi off, and the enthusiastic Wang Zhushu still carried the lantern saddle in front of the horse and behind the ground, and for a while, there were only Zhao Sima, Zhao Zhutou and Liu Yuan in the room.

"Shopkeeper Liu" Zhao Sima suddenly approached Liu Yuan and said.

"Lord Sima, please command."

Zhao Sima said in a low voice: "Forget about the silver or something, where is the corner of Changle Lane, there is a shop that sells wild tea, Lord Thorn Shi likes to drink that, where to buy a catty and send it to someone when the time comes." ”

If you have silver, you don't want wild tea?

Liu Yuan didn't understand what he was going to do, but he said so, so he had to come down first and see the situation clearly.

After Zhao Sima left, Liu Yuan was busy, packed the valuable and valuable ones first, wrapped them in cloth, tied them on his body, and put the rest in three thick big boxes with the help of Zhao Zhutou.

After returning home, I didn't expect Xiao Niang and Du Sanniang to have not slept yet, and they were all waiting for Liu Yuan to come back in the hall, in Xiao Niang's words. Liu Yuan is the pillar of the family, if he doesn't come back, he can't sleep peacefully, looking at the two beautiful beauties who are as beautiful as flowers worrying about themselves, Liu Yuan is deeply moved.

Under Liu Yuan's instructions, the three thousand taels of silver prepared by Xiao Niang contained gold, silver, and dozens of taels of broken silver. It feels like Liu Yuan and the old bottom of the Jinyu family have been hollowed out for these three thousand taels, Xiao Niang didn't say anything, anyway, what did the senior brother say. She did what she did, but Du Sanniang rolled her eyes. said that Liu Yuan was too treacherous. That behavior doesn't look like a decent gentleman at all.

Liu Yuan holds the mentality of "good men don't fight with women" and doesn't fight with her.

The three thousand taels have a whole and a zero, fortunately, Zhao Zhutou does not think it is fragmentary, and after the liquidation is completed, he will let his subordinates carry the silver back to pay the errand.

"Ah, why so much jewelry? This~~ This box is full of jewelry? Sanniang opened the boxes curiously. That eye made the gold and silver jewels shine, and it was the first time she had seen so many jewels.

Liu Yuan said that there was something to discuss, but he did not say that he was going to buy this batch of jewelry, because he didn't know if Lu Dao could negotiate properly. If Cui Tingshi's asking price is too high and the profit is too small, Liu Yuan will not do it.

Xiao Niang picked up a bracelet at random, put it in the candlelight and looked at it carefully, and soon saw the mark of the Jinyu family, and couldn't help but say curiously: "Senior brother, it turns out that you are going to collect jade jewelry from the building." ”

"Well, the government has confiscated the jewelry of Yumanlou, these things will eventually be put into storage, the jewelry is difficult to estimate, even if it is difficult to take flowers, so how can it be cashed into gold and silver before entering the warehouse."

Du Sanniang stammered a little and said, "This here only adds up to three thousand taels of silver?" Wouldn't it, so cheap? ”

There is a lot of mixing in the Jinyu family, Du Sanniang also knows the value of some jewelry, these three boxes, to say the least, are worth tens of thousands of taels, if you only buy it for three thousand taels, oh my God, just like this, how many times can the profit be doubled?

Liu Yuan shook his head and said: "How can you have such good luck, don't be a fool of those officials, how can it be so cheap, now it's just that they eat meat, I'll just drink some soup with them."

"Liu Yuan, you worked hard all night, it can't be just thirsty soup, right?" Du Sanniang knew Liu Yuan's thief appearance too well, whenever he was proud, he was a profiteer, looking at him like that, he would definitely not drink soup as simple, so he couldn't help but ask.

The three boxes of jewelry were secretly sent home by the official headhunter in the middle of the night, needless to say, it must be a shady deal.

"That, of course, you can earn a little bit of errand fees, otherwise whoever is willing to toss in the middle of the night."

"How much can I earn?" Du Sanniang asked with a gossipy face.

The little lady also aroused curiosity: "Senior brother, how much can you earn from this?" ”

Liu Yuan said indifferently: "I didn't make much, I still have a profit of three or four thousand taels of conservative points, and if I operate it well, it is not very difficult to earn six or seven thousand taels of silver, and I can earn pocket money." ”

What the? Three or four thousand taels? If the operation is better, six or seven thousand taels is not difficult? The two women's eyes widened when they heard this, and their mouths were open for a long time without closing.

Especially Du Sanniang, her heart was shocked, she used to be stunning Su Huai, and the guests who cheered were like carp crossing the river, in the past few years, the wind came, the rain went, and she worked hard for a few years, I don't know how many tunes she played, how many times she laughed with a strong face, plus the legacy of the bustard who regarded herself as a daughter and left her life savings to herself, it added up to more than a thousand taels, and this thousand taels did not know how many girls' tears and blood were included, but Liu Yuan went around like that, and easily earned thousands of taels.

Is this guy still human?

"You two, what expressions, don't you believe what I said?" Looking at the disbelief on the faces of the two women, Liu Yuan was not happy.

Xiaoniang shook her head and said, "No, no, what you said, senior brother, is naturally true." ”

Du Sanniang said a little unevenly: "I really don't know how you have so much shit luck." ”

With Liu Yuan's miraculous performances again and again, especially the mud that allowed him to refine more than 10,000 taels of silver, the second daughter was a little immune to his ungodly performance, as if there was nothing unusual about anything happening to Liu Yuan.

"Senior brother, why are your clothes so dirty, where have you been?" Xiaoniang suddenly found that Liu Yuan's clothes were a little dirty, as if there were cobwebs, so she couldn't help but step forward and pat off the dust off his body for him. ”

Liu Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "You think I'm going to eat, drink and have fun, doing hard work." ”

I was so tired just now that I was sweating, and there was a sour smell of sweat on my body, which was also reasonable, no wonder Zhao Zhutou refused to sit in the same carriage with him when he came back, and he thought he was putting up a fight, it seems that the reason is here.

"Senior brother, go take a bath and then sleep, it's easier to sleep, I'll tell someone to get ready to go."

Liu Yuan grabbed her and said, "You don't need to go, you can help your senior brother wipe his back later." After speaking, he shouted loudly at the door: "Zhao Lao, Zhao Lao"

"Young master, the old slave is here." As soon as he heard Liu Yuan's call, Zhao An flew in from outside the door.

"Go, prepare hot water, I'm going to shower and change clothes, hurry up." Liu Yuan commanded unceremoniously.

The master has not returned, where can this old loyal slave sleep, Liu Yuan noticed that Zhao An was waiting outside the door early in the morning.

"Yes, master." When Zhao An heard this, he hurriedly took the order to go down to make arrangements.

The little hand was dragged by Liu Yuan, or in front of Sanniang, the little lady's face was red, but after struggling a few times, she couldn't break free, Liu Yuan was afraid that Du Sanniang would make it bad, so he dragged the little lady away, and the catch was naturally tight.

"Liu Yuan, what are you doing, let the little lady go, it's late at night, we're going to sleep." Du Sanniang crossed her waist and shouted at Liu Yuan "fiercely".

Liu Yuan said with a smile: "What are you doing so early, it's a long night, let's sleep together, both of you have helped me rub my back, but I haven't rubbed it with the two of you, come on, Sanniang, you can also help me rub." ”

While talking, he said that he stretched out his hand to grab Du Sanniang, which frightened Du Sanniang's discoloration, spat Liu Yuan, scolded the prodigal son, and then flew to the room where he lived, so panicked that Du Sanniang's personal maid Die'er hurriedly followed.

Du Sanniang ran to the corridor outside, suddenly stopped, the silver teeth bit her lip, and a trace of hesitation appeared on her face, it was obvious that Liu Yuan's suggestion just now made Du Sanniang tempted, didn't she stay here just to get close to Liu Yuan, and then enter the Liu family as a concubine? However, when she thought of Liu Yuan's frivolous appearance, Du Sanniang stomped her feet and turned around to leave.

In the wing room, Liu Daguan ignored the opposition of the little lady, picked up the shy little lady, and strode towards his room (to be continued.) )
